UConn's Struggles, Times Four

•The Huskies have lost four in a row, for various reasons. Here's a quick look:

THE BIGS: UConn's front-court players have had trouble getting position down low, and finishing plays when they do get the ball. Andre Drummond was a little better (9-for-12, 18 points) at Georgetown, but he and Alex Oriakhi were a combined 17 for 50 from the floor, most of that in the paint, in the three previous games.

THE POINT: Shabazz Napier has been dribbling too much, and the offense has been stagnant. He has also been ice cold from the floor, 0-for-16 in the last two games.

SETBACK AT FORWARD: Tyler Olander, whose passing and jump-shooting was a plus earlier in the year, has been struggling with a heel injury. He has played only 55 minutes in the last four games.

SILENCE OF THE LAMB: Jeremy Lamb, UConn's top scorer, has been quiet, struggling to get his shot, and struggling to make it. He took only nine shots vs. Notre Dame; he made 4 of 18 vs. Georgetown.
